Heat Wave (Après le Sud) 2011
- Stuff
The stories of two post-teen cousins, an old retired gentleman, and a girl and her mother intertwine in this modern French drama. More
"One sweltering afternoon in the south of France, four lives intersect: those of Stéphane and Luigi, two cousins barely out of adolescence; Georges, a retired worker; Amélie, Luigi’s girlfriend; and Anne, Amélie’s mother. Four ordinary lives full of pain, humiliation, fear and fatigue converge in a series of tragic events. Jean-Jacques Jauffret presents a series of realistic vignettes – checking out groceries, waiting for the bus, playing soccer in the courtyard – which all take on greater meaning as the multiple plots thicken."
